Note: To commemorate the 100th season of the NFL, 60th season of the Buffalo Bills and 50th ... history to rush for 2,000 yards. And here it was, on a snowy, sloppy 1973 day at Shea Stadium ...

Simpson remains the only player to hit 2,000 in a 14-game season. The Bills won the game, 34-14. Simpson ran 34 times for exactly 200 yards and a touchdown, as Buffalo threw the ball only five times.

O.J. Simpson rushed for an NFL single-game record of 250 yards in the 1973 opener at New England. In 1973, Simpson became the first NFL player to rush for more than 2,000 yards in a single season.
